I was a heavy drinker, smoker – Prophet Oduro

-

Head pastor of the Alabaster International Ministries, Prophet Kofi Oduro, has disclosed that he used to be a notorious gang leader.

According to him, his past lifestyle has helped shape him to be a better person now.

“Growing up for me was very rough, I was born in Tesano. I grew up in Fadama and Abeka. There has been a rough patch for me during adolescence because I joined gangs. You can see it in my flair; that belligerence, possibly that’s where it’s coming from,” Prophet Oduro said in an interview on Citi TV.

As notorious as he was, being a man of God was never part of his dreams and aspirations in life.

“We had a rough kind of lifestyle. I have been a heavy driver, smoker and went into rap music. If someone has said I will become a pastor, I never would have believed it,” he said.
